Identifying JTAG

This is a quick-hit post because as I’ve been working on some hardware hacking efforts I realized that while there are a lot of good resources on identifying JTAG interfaces and standards, there wasn’t really a good single page view of them.  With that in mind, I lifted the following images from the excellent resource at http://www.jtagtest.com/pinouts/ and put them into a single page view.  Full credit to JTAGtest… I just wanted something I could quickly reference.

OSINT: Google and LinkedIn

This is the quick-hit version of the Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) training I gave on using data from Google and LinkedIn to profile an individual or organization.  As with all of the formal training, you can use the below for a quick reference, or view the full presentation here: OSINT – Social Media (Google and LinkedIn) (basic_0x08)

Google

Note: Do not use spaces between an operator (e.g. “-”) and the thing it operates on.  For example:

bob -dylan      # No Bob Dylan results
bob - dylan     # Bob Dylan shows up in results

Bruteforcing ESSID Values

If you need to reveal an (E)SSID you can do this simply through MDK3.  To do so we’ll use the “p” mode, as follows:

mdk3 {INTERFACE} p -f /path/to/file/of/potential_names -t {AP_MAC_ADDRESS} -b {CHARSET}

For the “CHARSET” you can use “a” (for all characters, not recommended except for tiny names), or one or more of the following:

  • u – Uppercase
  • l – Lowercase
  • n – Numbers
  • s – ASCII symbols

Good hunting!

Email Attachments

I was going through my old archives of files, exploits, and notes this week and came across a document I’d long since forgotten… a list of extensions I used to configure my mail hosts to block.  I decided to give it a quick update to modernize some of the listings, and the resultant beast is 203 extensions.  I wouldn’t say that everybody needs everything on this list, but if you’re looking for a one-stop list to be comprehensive I submit that this wouldn’t be a bad place to start.
